I'm not expecting too much more than we already know per Ashton's notes and what he revealed in his book.

fwiw, I tend to agree with JA when during his interview with Dr. Drew he opined, "I'm not sure your profession has come up with a test to diagnose what is wrong with her, because they [the tests] didn't reveal anything much and I know she isn't 'normal.'" <paraphrased>

I wonder what brought this on. Wasn't Mason set to take Ashton to task for having revealed some info?

What JA perfectly said was "Prosecutor Jeff Ashton then asked Danziger if he recalled a conversation he had with fellow Assistant State Attorney Linda Drane Burdick at the courthouse, in which he said words to the effect of "I have no explanation for this other than she's just pure evil"

I wonder what brought this on. Wasn't Mason set to take Ashton to task for having revealed some info?

this wouldnt change that, as ashton would have "done" it before they were unsealed. I find it unlikely that an attorney of ashton's skill & years did something like that without crossing his t's and dotting his i's though.

I wonder if he told all, or if there is a lot he couldnt tell, hence the release of the "diary" to distract?

Would Team KC been given any heads up that this was going to happen?

Or was it kind of a "excuse this interruption to your computer hacking (cough, cough) drama" type of thing?

I still want to read them. The DT was so against JA talking about them that I feel like there must be something in them they didn't want people to know. OH MUZIKMAN!!!! We need you!!!! LOL :rocker::rocker::rocker:

I doubt it. HHJP doesn't owe them anything anymore. Not even a fair warning.

I am finding this rather funny - the timing of the release. Considering Mason accusing Ashton of defying a court order by releasing sealed info. Then the video "hacking" (<please excuse the <gagging sound you hear>) debacle.

I think HHJP is thinking it is time to lay all the cards out on the table and allow the sharks to frenzy while they hopefully consume each other.

Beach, with all the great news of the day; possible firing of Jose, release of psych evals, and possibility of identifying of person who released the videos. I think we need a nice spread of food and drinks. Just like old times. :great:

And the reports of JB's departure... so that would be unrelated too because I'm pretty sure those reports came out before the stuff about the psych evals.

With the appeal still pending, I would like to hear HHBP's legal reasoning behind releasing these sealed depositions.
The release of these depositions may have a favorable impact for Ashton on the motion the defense asked of HHBP to have Ashton come in explain how he can revealed sealed information and not be held in contempt. IMO

"I have lost much sleep, lost weight, and I don't know – I want to do the right thing, and I don't know what the right thing to do is except I know we're here in the deposition and my understanding is you're entitled to it, but I feel troubled," Danziger said.

I am very interested that he had such a serious reaction.

Sorry to quote my own post, but I went and checked and it looks like news hit about Baez leaving FCA about 6 hours ago, and the psych evals being released was reported about an hour ago.

I'm sure he would have to had to let Casey know (or least let her lawyers know...oooh, maybe he let Baez know?) before today that he was unsealing the depositions, right? She probably knew before today that they were going to be released. JB's departure is totally related to the depositions being released today. There are no coincidences when it comes to Casey Anthony!
